We’re saying thank you to single mums by giving away free treats this Sunday
This Mother’s Day, Blackpool’s Bakery79 is giving single mums a moment of recognition with a free Yum Yum.
Blackpool’s Bakery79 is spreading a little extra sweetness this Mother’s Day by giving away free Yum Yums to single mums.
The family-run bakery on Preston New Road is aiming to recognise mothers who often spend the day quietly juggling work, childcare and household responsibilities without the traditional cards, flowers or breakfast in bed.
The offer is simple: single mums can visit Bakery79 this March, Sunday, 15 between 10am and 12pm, and say “Yum Yums for Single Mums” at the counter to receive a free pastry while stocks last.


A spokesperson for Bakery79 said: “Mother’s Day can sometimes be a little quieter for single mums who are busy looking after everyone else. We wanted to do something simple to recognise them and hopefully brighten their day with a small treat.”
It’s a small gesture, but one that Bakery79 hopes will make a difference for the city’s mums. With around 2.7 million single mothers in the UK the bakery says it wanted to offer something meaningful for those who rarely get the chance to treat themselves.
Bakery79 has been a familiar name in Blackpool for years and is part of a growing UK chain. With nearly 50 years of family baking heritage the brand has expanded rapidly, opening new sites across the country, including Kent and Surrey.
Despite its growth, it has kept a local touch with simple gestures like this giving back to the communities it serves.


For single mums in Blackpool this Sunday is an opportunity to enjoy a treat that’s just for them.
